FBI Offers $15,000 Reward to Recover Stolen Firearms

The Boston Division of the FBI is offering a reward of up to $15,000 for information leading to the recovery of the remaining six firearms stolen from the United States Army Reserve Center in Worcester, Massachusetts. A total of 16 weapons (six M-4 rifles and 10 M-11 pistols) were stolen from the facility sometime between the evening hours of Saturday, November 14, 2015, and early morning hours of Sunday, November 15, 2015. To date, 10 weapons have already been recovered, including all six M-4 rifles.

The FBI continues to devote significant resources to locate and recover these firearms and remove them from the possession of the unauthorized individual(s) who may have them. All local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies were quickly made aware of the theft and are assisting the FBI as warranted.

“We’re asking anyone with information about the location of these weapons to come forward and anyone who may have access to these weapons to turn them in to either the FBI or their local police department,” said Harold H. Shaw, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Boston Division.

Anyone with information should contact the FBI immediately at (617) 742-5533.
